Words simply fail to express how EPIC that was. Massive smile on my face, not only at the explosive talent of this band, but the exuberant joy with which they play.
Yeah, man. I'm going straight to Spotify after this for a discography listen. Also, if you dig this sound, check out Satchitananda-- A Thought Away. It's not afro-cuban, but has a lot of the same prog elements
I just love the way Alfredo is just so carried away when he plays that piano he just feels and loves the music with every cell in his body he is not only a brilliant musician but a fabulous entertainer as well
This is the most extraordinary discovery of the year. Is not only the insane virtuosity of Alfredo, Munir and Michael, but the amount of diverse ideas that can tie together with such compelling emotion. Unreal. The depth of this art makes me a better human.
Alfredo Rodriguez, an obscenely talented piano player. My favourite. Hope seeing him one day in a live concert. So much passion and love infused into these magical sounds.
Literally today i was listening him in a live concert in Serbia, Novi Sad, 2 hours before him was a Kenny Garrett, but i didn't listen him because all ticket was sold
Based on this I bought your album A Little Dream. Its fantastic. I play it every day in my car. i used to drive like a maniac now i just kick back and listen to every note. Alfredo you have a long and amazing career ahead of you. Really enjoy it thank you.
Un abrazo pa to Cuba !!! Hermanos !!! Alfredo Rodriguez ha estado aqui en Francia y me ha alucinado , trayendo toda la riqueza de Cuba ! Os quiero ! Para siempre !
I came across this concert about a month ago and I can't stop watching it every day. Three great musicians who bring out the best in each instrument. The melodies are so deep and inspiring that I am going to start learning piano as a hobby. Great for Alfredo Rodríguez who is placing the Cuban music at the highest level. Keep showing your magic on the piano like no one else. Greetings from Houston.
I heard the final song on KNKX Saturday afternoon, and immediately became obsessed! I am a new fan forever! Music just flows out of Alfredo Rodriguez and his band!! Maravilloso!
GENIAL hermano, genial, gracias por defender la buena música, gracias, gracias, gracias. Que orgullo d ser cubano y orgulloso también del baterista q es paisano mio
Love the track Bloom bought tingles to my body with hairs standing. Such great work gentlemen thank you for sharing your warmth. Thank you from London, England.
I have watched and listened to this video every day since it came out. The sheer joy and blissful hopefulness for humanity that it instills in me, has been enough to get me through this dark trumpian age. Thank you for the love
I'm always returning here justo to see Munir beautifully owning that bass. Love my country Brasil and Love my State Bahia, celeiro de artistas maravilhosos! Thanks NPR!
This is so good, it’s actually tripping me completely out. I thought I’ve heard music before until I heard this. Pocket, pocket, pocket. Cheers, Tiny Desk.
OMG! Never heard of this guys before but not even 2 minutes have gone by and I already love every note, every tempo and that passion! So excited to listen to every song they have.
My first language is English. My second language is good music!!! Thanks NPR for showing us good music on another spectrum of what we're used to. I was completely riveted by the sound😎
Pure joy and brilliance seeing these amazing artists. You guys are doing wonderful job at NPR with these desk concerts. It's such a novel way of introducing to the diverse music forms and talents.
totlmente un orgasmo musical. Musica para gozar y para alimentar el espiritu. Esta llena de sabor cubano pero expirementa con el jazz con lo classico y te lleva a las nubes para hacerta volar
I saw you guy's Amsterdam in 2021. Many of my friends didn't know what to expect. And the left the room speechless. haha. You guy's where amazing with intimite moments on the piano and big entertaining songs with the band. Hope you visit us again some time soon.
Beyond riveting. For as technical as some of the piano work was, deep melody was always so present. And as others have said, their joy was moving in its own right.
..some musicians are good, there are some that are special, there are a lot that are very good, but theese fine men are extraordinary.....at the end of the day to listen at night in your living room such a fine piece of concert....thank you for your fine music....i just had such a good time.....
I remember getting a free song of his from Google Music, and then I saw him in the Quincy Jones documentary a few days ago and remembered how much I liked him. What a treat this was?
Got some serious Hiromi Uehara vibes from the last tune in the best way! Love the flair and passion these guys bring to some truly vibrant music. Thanks for the find, Tiny Desk!
check michael olivera and munir hossn too in his own carrers, their albums are soooo great !! trust me. there´s a whole world here. to me , this is the 21st century latin "money jungle" (ellington, roach, mingus), 3 musicians at the top of the game
Anyone who really likes these guys should check out this crazy jazz fusion band from Japan called Jizue. I hear a lot of similarities between Alfredo's playing and the girl from Jizue. They are both incredible!
2:37 When Richard starts hitting the 5, reminds me of classic Seben, it’s just a beauty to hear such a wide musical spectrum in one song. Kudos all three.
Words simply fail to express how EPIC that was. Massive smile on my face, not only at the explosive talent of this band, but the exuberant joy with which they play.
Piers....If you like this, plz check out Closer To The Sun - Slightly Stoopid (Feat. Karl Denson) (Live at Roberto's :) ...let me know if you like
Well said sir.
Agreed
Piers - Perfectly said!
This is the best Tiny Desk concert i have ever seen.
Yeah, man. I'm going straight to Spotify after this for a discography listen.
Also, if you dig this sound, check out Satchitananda-- A Thought Away. It's not afro-cuban, but has a lot of the same prog elements
please, check munir hossn and michael olivera´s own carrers. they are sooo great too
@@bitterbum1 Thanks for the recomendation.
Check out Rodrigo y Gabriela, SsingSsing, Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah, and there are others, and you won't be able to say it again.
Ça on danse sa à la fin du bal lorsqu'on à déjà pris 3 verres 🍾de plus l'on fait le chacala on danse en désordre yes 👌👍
I just love the way Alfredo is just so carried away when he plays that piano he just feels and loves the music with every cell in his body he is not only a brilliant musician but a fabulous entertainer as well
OMG this bass player ! OMG this piano player ! OMG this drum player !
You are as good as you smile as happy I am to listen and watch !
This is what genius looks and sounds like. People like Rodriguez are reason enough to keep humanity alive.
This is the most extraordinary discovery of the year. Is not only the insane virtuosity of Alfredo, Munir and Michael, but the amount of diverse ideas that can tie together with such compelling emotion. Unreal. The depth of this art makes me a better human.
Perfectly put and I feel the same. Art like this redeems my faith in humanity.
Haha, yeah, well said! :D
Listen to Munir Hossn’s album that is “Made in Nordeste”, you will be lifted
Alfredo Rodriguez, an obscenely talented piano player. My favourite. Hope seeing him one day in a live concert. So much passion and love infused into these magical sounds.
Literally today i was listening him in a live concert in Serbia, Novi Sad, 2 hours before him was a Kenny Garrett, but i didn't listen him because all ticket was sold
Man! That bass tone is sick! Love these guys from now. NPR LATINOO!
aguanten los artistas latinos y toda su gente
GOLGOLGOLGOLGOL GOOOOAAALLL
Munir hossn
Munir Hossn
This is one of the best performances I've come across ever I think
Based on this I bought your album A Little Dream. Its fantastic. I play it every day in my car. i used to drive like a maniac now i just kick back and listen to every note. Alfredo you have a long and amazing career ahead of you. Really enjoy it thank you.
This is the best thing I’ve ever heard. “Yemaya” will always continue to hit every single time. I keep coming back to this
Made in cuba alfredo rodriguez trío bestial para los que amamos la buena musica
Proud of cuban music!!! Que viva la isla del sabor!!!!!
you should be. Amazing musicians in cuba ( an italian fan)
Un abrazo pa to Cuba !!! Hermanos !!! Alfredo Rodriguez ha estado aqui en Francia y me ha alucinado , trayendo toda la riqueza de Cuba ! Os quiero ! Para siempre !
Incredible! ...and how about the sound! Props to the sound engineer!
amoergosum3 I was thinking the same thing
FWIW, I would have featured the bass guitar just a bit more. He was hard to hear.
Right? Hardly sounds like an upright at all
@@rd4660 Munir has that sound, kind of bright and nasal, something of a taste I guess. I myself love it.
Its incredible that this is the NPR standard. Their sound engineers are true gods.
My jaw just dropped a mile. Unbelievable piano chops! The band is so tight! Love the tasteful drumming.
Who else came here from time to time to listen this masterpiece?
Me again :D
Totally apparent why Quincy Jones supports him. Beautiful music.
I came across this concert about a month ago and I can't stop watching it every day. Three great musicians who bring out the best in each instrument. The melodies are so deep and inspiring that I am going to start learning piano as a hobby. Great for Alfredo Rodríguez who is placing the Cuban music at the highest level.

this is why i come to watch Tiny Desk Concerts
One of the most fantastic TD ever! Cuba + Brasil!!!
Within the first few seconds, I'm already uplifted into a lovely mood...and it keeps GETTING BETTER!!!
Thank you so much NPR. You're restoring my faith in humanity, one video at a time.
Still one of the best performances on Tiny Desk💯
A piano pieces that really got into my soul! Wish to see him live one day!
The right pill for your soul illness, soul relief and a pinch of hope for your cloudy days!
Bloom!!! me ha hecho boom el corazón...qué pedazo de canción. Orgullosa de mis raíces!!! Viva Cuba y viva Alfredito!!
I thank all three of you for this beautiful music
Quincy never makes a mistake in recognizing the artists who are worth a lot! Alfredo in an exceptional Pianist! And all his trio are masters!
Bloom, the best song I´ve listen in a long long time. Respect Alfredo.
Maravilloso....despiertan hasta al más alicaído...gracias por esta belleza musical y hombre esa fresca energía. Enhorabuena.
Their faces say it all. Such talent flowing through them!
I can't stop thanking NPR for introducing me to music like this!
I heard the final song on KNKX Saturday afternoon, and immediately became obsessed! I am a new fan forever! Music just flows out of Alfredo Rodriguez and his band!! Maravilloso!

Gracias Quisqueya la bella y cariñosa siempre.
The second I heard all the instruments kick in the beginning, I knew I would be addicted to their music. So much life and expression, loving this!!
Love the person in the background saying “wow” after the first song.
Tiny desk just keeps on giving. So many stand out moments and this here for me is up there with the best 👍🏾. Thank you guys. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

One of the best music I ve listen lately.
I'm always returning here justo to see Munir beautifully owning that bass.
Love my country Brasil and Love my State Bahia, celeiro de artistas maravilhosos!

Increíble el talento de esta Banda y con el entusiasmo que tocan se siente la buena vibra. Benciones
tremendous performance !! oustanding virtuosos cuban & brazilian artists!! they spread joy and colourful emotions!!
Their cohesive precision is indescribably impressive!
This is fantastic! And kudos to Felix Contreras who IMHO picks the best artists to perform at Tiny Desk Concert.
Watching him perform live is a treat do not miss it if you have the chance.
This is so good, it’s actually tripping me completely out. I thought I’ve heard music before until I heard this. Pocket, pocket, pocket. Cheers, Tiny Desk.
OMG! Never heard of this guys before but not even 2 minutes have gone by and I already love every note, every tempo and that passion! So excited to listen to every song they have.

My first language is English. My second language is good music!!! Thanks NPR for showing us good music on another spectrum of what we're used to. I was completely riveted by the sound😎
Escuchar Bloom es algo especial, algo diferente, es... jodidamente bueno! gracias por esta maravilla.

totlmente un orgasmo musical. Musica para gozar y para alimentar el espiritu. Esta llena de sabor cubano pero expirementa con el jazz con lo classico y te lleva a las nubes para hacerta volar
Finally! I'm glad they are getting this exposure, I had thought no one else knew about this guy!
I saw you guy's Amsterdam in 2021. Many of my friends didn't know what to expect. And the left the room speechless. haha. You guy's where amazing with intimite moments on the piano and big entertaining songs with the band. Hope you visit us again some time soon.
I can't even handle how good this set is...it's existentially exquisite!
¡Que ganas de no morir nunca con ésto!, ¡que ganas de vivir eternamente!..¡con ésto!.
Beyond riveting. For as technical as some of the piano work was, deep melody was always so present. And as others have said, their joy was moving in its own right.

I put this for my 5 month old son and he goes crazy from all the colorful sounds, definitely talented musicians
I had to watch this twice in a row. ¡Qué maravilla!
I remember getting a free song of his from Google Music, and then I saw him in the Quincy Jones documentary a few days ago and remembered how much I liked him. What a treat this was?
This is so good for the soul
Bliss! Cuba and Brazil together.

The best concert I've seen on here so far, pure joy!
Ustedes con su música me recargan , graciasssss, un abrazo
The atmosphere they are building is awsome. Unbelievably powerful stuff. Just amazing!
Especially that second one, my god
Qué bueno... qué gusto escuchar tan buena musica
Thank you that is great!
Got some serious Hiromi Uehara vibes from the last tune in the best way! Love the flair and passion these guys bring to some truly vibrant music. Thanks for the find, Tiny Desk!
Monumental gozadera la que trasmiten estos muchachos... Enhorabuena talento!!!
That was musical heaven. My ears and mind have truly been immersed. So calming!
Even the audience sounded good...Tiny Desks audio engineers must be magicians.
yap, best sound. Even best then sound from albom tracks of some guests
One for the shortest soul nourishing tiny desks. Totally mind blowing 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
OMG!! Hugs from Brasil!! Beautiful guys, loved it!
Definitely this is one of the best channels on YT!
Probably one of my favorite guests on tiny desk!!
Brasil 🇧🇷 sendo bem representado orgulhoso ainda sendo baiano rs melhor ainda
check michael olivera and munir hossn too in his own carrers, their albums are soooo great !! trust me. there´s a whole world here.
to me , this is the 21st century latin "money jungle" (ellington, roach, mingus), 3 musicians at the top of the game
lukather78 you couldn’t be more right, their individual projects are ridiculous
You're right there's a whole world there, you have 3 great musicians projects in 1
Anyone who really likes these guys should check out this crazy jazz fusion band from Japan called Jizue. I hear a lot of similarities between Alfredo's playing and the girl from Jizue. They are both incredible!
Music is a universal language when the heart is listening, Caribbean soul
I’m blown away...these guys are amazing
Viva!!! Viva!!!!! parabéns vcs tornaram meu dia mais feliz (Congratulations, you made my day happier.) thanks NPR
Bass player and piano Guy, Amazing! Just don't forget the drummer!😍
2:37 When Richard starts hitting the 5, reminds me of classic Seben, it’s just a beauty to hear such a wide musical spectrum in one song. Kudos all three.
Thanks NPR for one more beautiful morning and great music experience!
Omg... I cursed multiple times throughout!.. Amazing!!!
Dang! This music spoke to my spirit. Thank you for introducing me to this, Tiny Desk ❤️
